I don't know why but I imagined it haveing the same kind of trains as Maverick. Kind of disappointed. Looks fantastic none the less.

MrCrolly must have brainwashed you with Macabre.

How can you be disappointed by lapbars?

I think that Cannibal will be the sleeper hit of 2015. Even though it's not getting too much attention (at least outside of the enthuaiast community), this looks like it will be a truly awesome ride. I wish I could ride it, but I won't be going out to Utah anytime soon .

ERMAHGERD!

I'm sorry but that train looks so stupid And wtf is going on with the 2 heartline rolls? Who does that? I'm just... just.. no. The rest is looking pretty dope though, don't get me wrong that drop is crazy.

I actually like the train, I didn't think I would but it's like a slab of wood going down a hill. It really only looks awkward at the top of the drop. I do want to see a different angle on the turn right after the mcbr though. the rest of the ride looks well paced and awesome!

I'm predicted the "roll" gets edited ten years down the line. It's going to have a good slam in that spot lol.

Wow, that thing flew over the MCBR. I assume they are going to trim that thing on that spot. Too bad, because those helixes look really powerful now.

LOL that heartline roll sequence....

That drop looks just crazy. And the first 3 elements look fantastic. And then...I don't know if they ran out of ideas or what. The second half looks pretty standard imo. Still, overall looks like a great ride. Lagoon is a park I want to get to anyway, so this will be a nice bonus.

Geesh! Everyone's a Critic! lol I say Good Job Lagoon, Dal Freeman, Dustin Allen, and ART Engineering GmbH!

I do still think this ride looks awesome. The final helix will be kick-ass.

^Just wait until they add the water effect!

Looks pretty awesome and seems to fly through the layout. The little airtime hill after the second inversion looks especially good! Not a fan of the heartline rolls either - like Dirk said I'll be interested to see if they trim it much there!

Yea WTF with those rolls.
I second CK's prediction that it will get changed down the road.

I like the rolls a lot. Also there might be a slight direction change in the middle that you can't see from the side view that helps keep riders in their seat and not awkwardly pressed to the side of the car or the person next to them. That section is definitely unique if nothing else, which falls in line with most of the rest of the ride. I think the coaster as a whole should be pretty awesome.

[Coasterkidmwm]

Yeah I was wondering if the track dips in a bit there or something. I guess we'll find out eventually.

[Paradox]

I like the rolls. Do you guys really think that Lagoon just threw together two opposite rolls without thinking about it?

It is new and has never been done before so I give the park credit for thinking outside of the box and being unique.

^ One day someone drew up and decided to put roll out of the turn, the next day someone else decided the ride needed to turn the opposite way so he drew up a roll going the other way, totally how this went down XD

Paradox got it, those rolls are neat. Plus think about the massive head chopper it will produce with the rocks.

@linearinduction : What was the role of Dustin Allen in this project?

Intamin threw a heartline roll into Maverick before realizing it didn't work?

^+1.5

Looking the speed it currently passes over that section. I think it was even more than that.

[TTD03]

^ I agree, it's more than that.
